This t-shirt features a striking, historically accurate design of the original MN-41 road sign used in Minnesota when its numbered highway system was first introduced in 1920. The artwork directly emulates the simple, functional aesthetic of the era.
Visual Elements
The design presents a clean and uncluttered visual. The primary element is the bold, black numeral "41," centered prominently on a stark white background. The typography is a straightforward, sans-serif font, reflecting the utilitarian nature of the original sign. The shape of the sign is either a square or a rectangle, mirroring the typical format used at the time.
Meaning and Symbolism
The design represents a significant piece of Minnesota's transportation history. It symbolizes the dawn of the state's organized highway system, a time when roads were being improved and the concept of numbered routes was new. The stark simplicity of the sign reflects the early days of automobile travel and the focus on providing basic navigational information. It's a tribute to a bygone era of road travel and a reminder of the origins of Minnesota's extensive highway network. The MN-41 sign itself points to a specific route, connecting towns in southern Minnesota, evoking a sense of journey and exploration.
